I won't be joining the new game, but is everyone going to be abandoning this one?

There will be some tweaks for 1.05 on legionnaire quality, thanks to this discussion and Richard input. Will 1.05 patch get released skipping 1.04? I can see it now - it's a new marketing strategy, instead of going up by .01, version releases will go up by .02 to make people think the patch will be...

When exactly is this new patch coming out? Normally I'd want it ASAP, but I think I'd be quite happy if this one was not rushed....

My God we are poor in Lysimakos....

The Spartan way of life is the ultimate definition of poverty.

What would be cool to have in the ledger would be to have a filter for factions than were human controlled. This would really give a quick and easy glance to see who were the best players in MP.

I'd like to participate in this game, please. I'd prefer a smaller nation, so I would like to play as Sparta. I've already tried them out a couple of times in SP, and they're a fun little nation to play actually. Excellent! That's what we need. Watch out for Macedon. :wink: Indeed, I'll be sending ...

To do the switch, please leave the game and rejoin as Dacia.

Done.

I wouldn't mind switching Maurya for Dacia if that's okay with everyone.

If it's not too late I wouldn't mind taking Mauriya for the hell of it.

The original Civ manual had 100+ pages IIRC. Despite that, it turned out pretty well IIRC.

Something simple like reduce 3-1 down to 2-1 after turn 250 would work pretty well IMO. If you have double Legacy at the halfway mark, it is probably safe to say you are able to coast to victory by 500. Or, a base legacy points could be met before the lower VC condition could be met (eg getting 300...

Well if the end game is boring because of the 3 x legacy of next best faction, then perhaps the victory condition (VC) should be lowered? Or better still, give some options on it, e.g. x3, x2.5, x2, x1.5. I did suspect this might be the case if the VC target is too high, although care must be needed...

The culture value also depends on loyalty as well (it's basically culture x loyalty per province, added up and averaged out). But in a way it doesn't really matter, all you really need to know is the trend. In other words, if you're in the lowest rung, you just need to improve your rank each turn to...

I lost of course, but this was as Sparta. Game over in 92 turns, but it was a fun campaign, in the sense that I wanted to be restricted and not have too much freedom. Sounds weird, and yet it worked (I had played a previous game as the Arvneni but it was too expansive, too much to do;) So I went for...

Hmm, not good if there is a server problem. Is it possible to send save games files directly by email instead?
